    How was the xenforo upgrade?

    Hey guys, I'm looking at migrating another site of mine from vBulletin 4 over to Xenforo. Since it's a new platform to me, and you guys did a successful migration - mind sharing any advice you might have? Any gotchas to look out for or "wish I'd known" situations? We're planning to do a pair...

    Who to contact about unsafe drone ops?

    On another forum, someone has posted that their neighbor is deliberately flying drones as high as possible into a regional airport approach path. Question - I'm encouraging this person to report their neighbor for putting planes and passengers at risk. To whom should the calls be made...

    Netherlands pilot getting all kinds of praise online

    http://mashable.com/2015/07/27/plane-landing-netherlands/ Am I alone in thinking this landing should have been re-considered? Maybe a different runway? The airport he landed at had a variety to choose from...

    Life Insurance for Pilots that doesn't cost an arm and a leg?

    Back in 2008 I quit flying for financial reasons (getting out of debt). One of the things I did while getting my financial house in order was to get adequate life insurance on myself - and unfortunately if I wanted to continue flying and remain covered, it would have cost me ... as I recall...

    $40

    Man Who Crashed Stolen Plane Ordered To Pay $40 That's it - $40 in restitution to the owner. His insurance paid for the rest. Well ok and 9 months in jail... ...the ins could, presumably, go after the homeless guy in a civil suit, but why bother? He's broke!

    Hey, something I didn't know about...Jesse or Jason please read

    So I never realized that the "Mark Forum as Read" link in the search results subjected users to a 3 second wait on repeat searches. Maybe it's just me - cause I will click on 2 or three "mark read" links at a time in rapid succession, and I used to never see the "wait between searches" message...

    Free at last, free at last...

    ...it's about dang time! After more than a year of transition work (the lions share of which was delayed thanks to the absolutely asinine policies of Paypal), the last ties between myself and ownership of Pilots of America are gone. It has been my privilege to have been able to be a part...

    I'm arguing with an idiot - need FAR reference

    Idiot on another forum insists that Flight attendant has no authority to confiscate an item - specifically in this case to confiscate an electronic device a passenger refused to turn off. Now in point of fact, to the best of my knowledge, the item was no threat and was cleared for operation...

    PA Lawyers - Custody Question - Revised - Need more PA lawyer input

    A friend who has made, let us say, not the most fully thought out choices in the past is now considering one that I suspect also isn't fully thought out. She has a verbal custody agreement with her ex husband over their 9 year old son. (And the 17 yr old daughter but she's old enough to make...

    Please vote: Are you concered about your posts being seen by search engines?

    Does the fact that Pilots of America allows the internet search engines to search and report on all of the forums (except the Spin Zone) cause you any concern?

    New Spin Zone policy - trial run

    As many of you know, POA MC members volunteer their time to the board. As many of you know (or should know), the Spin Zone has often been a huge drain on MC members' time and energy. Due to to the volunteer nature of the MC (read that we all have day jobs) we often don't have the time to respond...

    The GM Jet

    So there's a broohaha about GM and other Detroit auto execs spending thousands on private transport to go ask DC for money. This is not about that. However, in some discussions elsewhere, some questions about the accuracy of the report have come up, and some other ancillary questions related...
